Start by looking at magento. It's a great ecom shop software

How about you just take an open source ecommerce o package, and
modify/extend that if you need more functions? I would not recommend
reinventing the wheel. Also I doubt there is a tutorial/book on this. As
always, source code is probably the best documentation you can get.

There's this at O'Reilly: "Building eCommerce Applications"
http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920023098.do
And this at Amazon: "Effortless E-Commerce with PHP and MySQL" by
Larry Ullman http://amzn.com/0321656229
Also, not really knowing how much you need to do yourself, you could
probably get a leg up using existing frameworks and such.
The multilingual aspects will certainly be tricky. Gettext is sort of
the standard for doing multilingual things, but in and of itself
doesn't really provide much help in understanding *how* to do
multilingual right, and can be problematic. Some frameworks do support
multilingual sites; I know drupal does, for example, and includes
quite a lot of other things that can help you build an e-commerce site
rather quickly, but drupal itself has a rather steep learning curve.
Passages of just plain text aren't that difficult; it's when you start
constructing displayed text dynamically that it will be trickier, for
certain.
Just thinking off the top of my head; you will likely need something
other than just gettext with it's separate language files for things
like product descriptions. I think it gets rather difficult, and
probably bad form, to have your separate strings in files in your code
base linked to data base entries; simpler just to store the various
multilingual data base bits in the data base itself. But you can see
how complex it gets.
At any rate, I hope you have a fair bit of experience in building
dynamic internet sites already, this is not going to be easy.

I am writing a simple file system iterator which seems to work fine on
local filesystems but methods such as FilesystemIterator::isDir and
isFile fail to properly evaluate if the directory are smb/cifs mounted.
Does anyone know a workaround or alternative?
Thanks

Just an update to my own post since I did not get any response. After
more digging, I found a solution and thought I should share it in case
anyone else has a similar issue.
The solution was to add the noserverino option to my mount command. Now
FilesystemIterator::isDir, isFile (and probably other similar PHP
functions) correctly report the expected response.
example:
# mount -t smbfs "//192.168.1.2/my/folder" /mount -o noserverino,user=me

I'm having a perplexing problem with a rewrite rule (it's off topic but it's
Friday!). My initial path is
piccDetails/index/0/linetypes/2012-01-01/2012-12-31/Successful and that works
great. However, in my script I want to change the zero in the path to a 1.
This tells it to generate a spreadsheet. When my new link is clicked on I wind
up with
piccDetails/index/0/linetypes/2012-01-01/2012-12-31/Successful/piccDetails/index/1/linetypes/2012-01-01/2012-12-31/Successful.
Each click just adds to the end of the URL instead of replacing it. My
.htaccess file looks like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [PT,L]
I'm guessing there's something wrong in it but I don't know what. Any help
would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Floyd

where is the rewrite rule from 0 to 1?
And can not see it here?

That part isn't a rewrite rule. Basically what I want to do is to load the
same page with a different parameter.
Thanks!

Have you set a rewrite base? Do you use relative or absolute links on
your page?
You know, with seeing all of the relevant code, nobody can point out the
error

I was using relative paths. I changed it to absolute and it works fine now.
Thanks for a nudge in the right direction!
Thanks!
